Warhol Portrait Visual Design
Andy Warhol is an
artist that crated silkscreen prints of famous people and popularized pop art
and pop culture. I would buy his artwork because it looks unique. His artwork
reminds me of pop because the colors stand out. The association is pleasant
because of the different colors. In pop culture critics reflect on the image
and points out things that could have been better and gives their opinion on
it. The difference between an informed and uninformed opinion is that an
informed opinion is an opinion that you are aware of while and uninformed
opinion is an opinion that you don't know about. Taste and bias is different
because your taste is something you like or dislike while a bias is a favor of
or against something that is usually unfair.
Warhol's
portraits have a lot of different colors, which makes it seem lively. The poses
are different angles or sitting positions. Portraits are important to us
because of their deep meanings that we can relate to and understand the
feelings/emotions they contain. Artists painted portraits throughout the ages
because they are able to express themselves and capture a special moment that
is important/precious to them. I feel excited and satisfied about making a
Warhol portrait of myself. It is important to pay attention to color and detail
in this project so you don’t make a mistake. Sometimes you have to start all
over again from scratch because of a mistake you make while not paying close
attention to color and detail.
I created my Warhol portrait first by
taking a picture of myself, and then use the quick selection tool to select
only me. Then I de-saturated my picture, prepared a canvas and made a folder,
dragged the layer inside it. Then I duplicated the folder 3 times and used the
move tool to arrange them and re-sized the image. Then I used the rectangular
marquee tool to select a photo and changed the background by going to
layer-solid fill layer and selected my colors. Then I changed the images color
by clicking select-load selection. I clicked on the paint bucket tool, changed
the color and adjusted the color. Then I used the yin-yang symbol to add image
adjustments to the image layer. The tools I used were Photoshop move tool,
paint bucket tool, quick selection tool, and rectangular marquee tool, re-sized
the image, and used the palette. I see myself using this skill in the future
with my future projects, labs, helping other and on my website.
